British Garden Centres raises £52k for Greenfingers Charity
Greenfingers creates and maintains inspiring gardens in children’s hospices across the UK.
British Garden Centres has once again shown its commitment to Greenfingers by presenting the charity with a cheque for an impressive £52,000. Greenfingers creates and maintains inspiring gardens in children’s hospices across the UK, giving young people and families a place to relax and enjoy time together.
The donation was raised through the charity’s 25th anniversary year, which was packed with fundraising activities across the chain’s 73 garden centres nationwide. Surpassing 2024’s £30,000 total, a big highlight was Garden Re‑Leaf Day, which raised an incredible £20,000 across the largest family-run garden centre group.
‘Truly remarkable’
Amy Stubbs, managing director of British Garden Centres, said: “We’re so proud of how our teams and customers have come together again this year to support Greenfingers. It is a charity that means a lot to us, and we’re honoured to keep playing our part in helping it create more special gardens in UK hospices for children and families.”
Linda Petrons, director of fundraising and communications for Greenfingers Charity, added: “To have raised an astonishing £52,000 is truly remarkable and reflects the extraordinary generosity, enthusiasm and kindness of every team member. This phenomenal sum will make a lasting difference, funding the creation and upkeep of Greenfingers gardens in children’s hospices, creating places filled with peace, colour and joy for families who need them most.”
